“All Things Fantasy” (9-10-12)

This is the Monday September 10th, 2012 edition of “All Things Fantasy”. Jeff Erickson, the Senior Editor of Rotowire.com and Host of Rotowire Fantasy Sports Today on Sirius/XM satellite radio, joined me to talk fantasy football and fantasy baseball. Also, I give some player pickups and some players you should or shouldn’t panic over. Here are my notes from the show.

Michael Turner- Panic – 11 carries for 32 Rushing Yards. I would be trying to trade immediately if I owned him. The Falcons are becoming a Pass First offense and Turner is going to struggle the whole season. Will be very frustrating to own

Eli Manning- Don’t Panic- 213 Yards, 1 TD. He will be his solid self, just a bad game.

Jamaal Charles- 87 yards- Faced a tough run defense. Will still be a solid fantasy contributor throughout the season.

Pickups-

Stephen Hill Jets, WR- 5 catches for 89 yards and 2 TDs. Looks like he will be the Jets big time play maker. Should be owned in most leagues but want to see him produce again before I would put him in my starting lineup.

Donald Jones, WR,BUF- He had a solid game with 5 catches for41 yards and 1 TD

Coby Fleener TE, Colts (49%)- 6 catches 82 yards. Went to college at Standford and played with Luck so he already has a repertoire with him. Could be a solid TE throughout the season

Knowshon Moreno RB, DEN- 5 carries, 13 yards, 1 TD. Insurance for Willis McGahee or pick him up if your looking for a player that could be a solid contributor later in the season.

Dexter McCluster RB, WR (13%)- 6 catches 82 yards. I like Dexter a lot especially for PPR leagues. His production will mirror what he did he in his first game, but will randomly score a TD here and there.

Cecil Shorts Jags, WR – (0%) had a great week 4 catches for 74 yards and 1 TD, if he has another solid game then he will be a great pickup next week.
